I hated you because you reminded me of...how I once was...of what I lost.

I hated myself for going, why couldn't I be the kind of person who stays?

I still think that being forced to leave your home out of fear is one of the worst injustices a human being can face.

But you went away
How dare you?
I miss you.
They say I’ll be OK.
But I’m not going to ever get over you.

I knew and still know that they are good people. They’d never willingly do something like that, but I’d always wonder, How could you not have known that leaving me behind for so long, and that not connecting with me emotionally, was wrong?

Baby why'd you leave me, why'd you have to go; I was counting on forever, now I'll never know.

You made me cry, when you said goodbye Ain't that a shame My tears fell like rain Ain't that a shame You're the one to blame

I confessed, I messed up dropping 'I'm sorry's like you're still around.

It is almost four years to the day since you left our Labour Party. I say 'our' deliberately. You left because you were forced out by intimidation, thuggery and racism. Yours was a principled and brave move. But it was one you should never have been forced to take. That day will forever be a stain on Labour's history.
I don’t need to explain to you the litany of failures that left you — a Labour MP with a huge future ahead of you — no longer feeling welcome in your own party. Instead, I want to once again apologise.

You leave me much against my will.

I regret that I should leave this world without again beholding him.

"Resentment is a method of self harm.

"As I walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to my freedom, I knew if I didn’t leave my bitterness and hatred behind, I’d still be in prison.

I regret everything. But if I had done things differently, it would never have been as compelling.
